Dream Was To Play For India And Wear The Indian Jersey: Prince Yadav
Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari: Fast bowler Prince Yadav described representing India as the fulfilment of a lifelong dream after receiving his maiden ODI cap ahead of the second ODI against Afghanistan at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium on Wednesday. The 24-year-old Delhi pacer was presented with cap No. 263 by vice-captain Shreyas Iyer before India's clash against Afghanistan, capping a remarkable rise that has seen him progress from domestic cricket to the international stage in a short span. Whenever anyone starts playing cricket, their dream is always to play for India and wear the Indian jersey. During the headshot, I wore the jersey for the first time, so it feels really good. Made my parents feel proud, and I will thank god. Making a debut is a good thing for any player, but the main thing is that I perform for my team, and make my team win, then I will be very happy, Prince said in a video shared by BCCI. Prince was one of three changes India made for the second ODI. He replaced one of the seam-bowling options in the playing XI, while Yashasvi Jaiswal came into the side after Nitish Kumar Reddy was ruled out with an injury. While handing over the debut cap, Iyer praised the youngster's perseverance and backed him to seize the opportunity. Cap number 263, Prince. You have worked really hard to get here, and your performance definitely proves that. You deserve this opportunity. And the way you said yesterday that you want to make your country proud, and make every single person following you happy. So, good luck to you, your family, and everyone who has supported you throughout this journey. Do well, Buddy, said Shreyas while handing Prince his ODI debut cap. While handing over the debut cap, Iyer praised the youngster's perseverance and backed him to seize the opportunity. Also Read: Live Cricket Score His journey has also been marked by adversity. In 2019, Prince served a two-year BCCI suspension after being found guilty of age-fudging in Under-19 cricket. Since returning, he rebuilt his career through consistent performances in domestic cricket before forcing his way into IPL contention and, ultimately, earning his maiden India call-up.

Nitish Reddy Out Of 2nd ODI Due To Sore Thigh: BCCI
Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari: India all-rounder Nitish Kumar Reddy missed out on the second ODI at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium on Wednesday due to quad issues as India made three changes to their playing XI that beat Afghanistan in the first ODI in Dharamsala on Saturday. Nitish Kumar Reddy was unavailable for selection for the second ODI due to a sore left thigh. The BCCI Medical Team is monitoring his progress, the board said in a statement released after the toss. The 23-year-old allrounder played a pivotal role with the ball in a rain-curtailed match, finishing with clinical figures of 2 for 31. His crucial breakthroughs included the prized wickets of Afghanistans explosive centurion Rahmanullah Gurbaz and veteran all-rounder Mohammad Nabi, helping India restrict the visitors to 194. Ahead of the toss, the Men in Blue handed a debut to Prince Yadav, making him the third debutant in this series after Harsh Dubey and Gurnoor Brar, who earned their caps in the 1st ODI. Dubey and Prasidh Krishna, however, have not been included in the XI for the second game as India brought in Yashasvi Jaiswal and Kuldeep Yadav as Afghanistan won the toss and elected to bowl. Speaking of the series opener, India drew first blood in Dharamsala, sealing a convincing seven-wicket victory in a rain-shortened 25-overs-a-side contest. While the margin suggested a one-sided affair, Afghanistan had their moments, largely thanks to an explosive innings from Rahmanullah Gurbaz. The opener tore into the Indian attack with a stunning century off just 48 deliveries, putting his side in a commanding position during the first half of the innings. However, once he departed, the momentum shifted dramatically as Afghanistan's middle order failed to build on the platform, leaving plenty of runs behind on a surface that had more to offer.

2nd ODI: When And Where To Watch India Vs Afghanistan Clash, Know All Details
Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari: India will aim to secure the three-match ODI series when they face Afghanistan in the second ODI at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajyapaye Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow on Wednesday. The hosts began the series confidently, winning the rain-shortened opener in Dharamsala by seven wickets. Chasing 195 in a 25-over match, India achieved the target with 13 balls to spare after limiting Afghanistan to 194. Debutants Gurnoor Brar and Harsh Dubey stood out with the ball as India's young attack put in a disciplined performance. With the series at stake, India might keep experimenting with different combinations as they prepare for the 2027 ODI World Cup. Players like Kuldeep Yadav and Yashasvi Jaiswal still have a chance to make the playing XI. On the other hand, Afghanistan must win to keep the series alive before the final ODI on June 20. The visitors need a stronger batting effort after relying too much on Rahmanullah Gurbaz in the first match. Their hopes with the ball will again depend on star spinners Rashid Khan and AM Ghazanfar. A slower surface in Lucknow could provide more help to Afghanistan's spin attack, making for an exciting matchup as India chases the series and the visitors strive to stay in it.

2nd ODI: Upbeat India Eye Series Win As Afghanistan Look For Batting Support For Gurbaz (Preview)
Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari: India will look to wrap up the three-match ODI series against Afghanistan when the teams meet in the second match at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajyapaye Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow on Wednesday. Having secured a solid win in the rain-shortened opening ODI, India leads the series 1-0. Another victory would clinch the contest. However, with the 2027 ODI World Cup approaching and about two dozen ODIs left before the tournament, the team management is taking every chance to try out combinations and evaluate players in various roles. India's bowling attack performed well in Dharamsala, and another strong showing would strengthen their hold on the series. In the pace department, debutant Gurnoor Brar impressed in the first match and is expected to get another chance, while fellow newcomer Prince Yadav awaits his opportunity. One major decision ahead of the second ODI is about Kuldeep Yadav. The left-arm wrist spinner was a regular in India's home ODI series against South Africa and New Zealand, but he has struggled with his form lately. After a modest IPL season, he had a disappointing performance in the one-off Test and missed selection for India's recent T20I squads for the Ireland and England tours, as well as the Asian Games. Despite this, ODIs remain Kuldeep's best format, and his ability to take wickets in the middle overs may lead the team management to consider bringing him back into the lineup. Head coach Gautam Gambhirs preference for versatile players suggests that Washington Sundar will likely keep his spot, which may leave debutant Harsh Dubey at risk despite his impressive three-wicket haul in the opening ODI. Another player aiming for a spot is Yashasvi Jaiswal. With Virat Kohli sidelined due to a hamstring injury, the No. 3 position is open for experimentation. Ishan Kishan played in the opener, but Jaiswal's recent performances across formats have boosted his chances of making the XI. India will also look for a stronger performance from veteran opener Rohit Sharma, who was run out cheaply in the first ODI. Gill, on the other hand, will feel positive about how his team handled pressure and adjusted to the rain-affected conditions in Dharamsala. For Afghanistan, the task is clear--deliver a more complete batting performance. Rahmanullah Gurbaz's aggressive century was the highlight in the opening ODI, but he received little help from the rest of the batting lineup, leading to a less competitive total. The visitors will also hope that the conditions in Lucknow favour their strong spin attack. Rashid Khan, AM Ghazanfar, and Mohammad Nabi struggled to apply consistent pressure on the Indian batsmen in Dharamsala, but a slower surface in Lucknow could work to their advantage.

Photograph courtesy of Riyadh Art, 2026. © Subodh Gupta Constructed from stainless steel and everyday household utensils, the large-scale sculpture takes the form of a peepal, or bodhi, tree, a species associated with cultural and spiritual significance across South Asia. By translating an organic form into metal and everyday domestic objects, Gupta repositions the tree within a contemporary, secular context. The work brings together objects commonly linked to domestic life, including tiffin boxes, thali pans, and milk pails, into a branching sculptural structure that reflects sustenance, migration, labour, and economic transformation. Installed within one of Riyadh’s key urban districts, Family Tree engages directly in its surrounding environment, creating both a public landmark and a place for gathering and reflection. “ Family Tree reflects the power of art to connect people through familiar materials and shared experiences ,” said Architect Badr Shenafi, Senior Director of Riyadh Art . “ By bringing a work of this scale and significance to the capital, Riyadh Art continues to strengthen the presence of contemporary art within the city’s public spaces and everyday urban experience .” Subodh Gupta (b. 1964) is an Indian contemporary artist whose multidisciplinary practice spans sculpture, installation, painting, photography, video, and performance. Born in Bihar, India, Gupta spent his early years traveling with a theatre group before studying painting at the College of Art in Patna, where he received a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree. After relocating to New Delhi, his practice expanded beyond painting into three-dimensional and installation-based work. Gupta is widely known for incorporating stainless steel kitchen utensils and other objects associated with domestic life in India into his work. Through these familiar materials, he examines themes of cultural identity, migration, globalization, and economic transformation. His work reflects the relationship between tradition and modernity, abundance and scarcity, and local experience and global circulation. Gupta has exhibited internationally in major museums, biennales, and public art contexts, and his work is held in prominent public and private collections worldwide. Family Tree forms part of the Riyadh Art Permanent Collection, a growing citywide collection of public artworks installed across Riyadh’s neighbourhoods, public spaces, and routes of movement. Led by the Royal Commission for Riyadh City, Riyadh Art is one of the world’s largest public art programs and one of Riyadh’s four original mega projects under Vision 2030. Since its launch in 2019, Riyadh Art has installed 75 artworks across the city as part of the Permanent Collection, with further artworks planned for installation throughout 2026 and beyond. Across its annual festivals, Noor Riyadh and Tuwaiq Sculpture, Riyadh Art has showcased more than 580 works in multiple locations around the capital, attracting more than 17.3 million visitors and spectators to date. Through works such as Family Tree, Riyadh Art continues to support the development of a public art collection that contributes to Riyadh’s cultural landscape and public realm.
